Old Town Sorrento 106 SK

More Details

The Old Town Sorrento 106 SK is a stable, lightweight touring kayak with skeg for easy paddling in a straight line. When used to explore local waterways, the canal network, gentle flowing rivers or calm lakes, the Sorrento 106 will excel, and let you paddle along in comfort. Regardless of being on or off the water, this 10ft 3in kayak weighs in at 20.4 kg and is extremely manoeuvrable (plus easy to car top solo).

With a mild v-shaped hull the Sorrento 106 is efficient on the water, should the conditions change the drop-down skeg will assist with tracking and aid you to keep going in a straight-line. A generously sized cockpit entry offers ease of entry (and more importantly exit) means for improved peace of mind as less chance of feeling enclosed. The ACS2.0 seat system offers wonderful comfort with an adjustable backrest and seat base leg lifter; it is easy to get an almost bespoke fit for yourself, resulting in more control.

In regard to storage, the Old Town Sorrento 106 has well considered solutions. The Quick Seal hatch in the rear (sealed with a bulkhead behind the seat) is easy to operate even with cold and wet hands and offers sufficient storage for a trolley, change of clothes and lunch. While deck bungees can be found on the bow to provide additional quick access storage.

For paddlers looking to cover greater distance with the same comfort, it is worth looking at the longer Old Town Sorrento 126. The Sorrento 106 is a great, stable touring kayak for calm conditions, well liked by novices and more experienced kayakers alike.
